Can anybody also realized the slowness is that pool?
Last block.

If you look through this thread you'll notice that plenty of people have noticed that.
beer has good and bad days, like any pool. Just because we are slow in finding a block does not mean you get paid less. You get a share equal to the work you put in just like any other pool.
It could be thought like this:
- It takes 20 men (or women) to build a car and sell it for $20,000. Each man (or woman) gets paid $1,000 for their work. It takes 10 days to build this car and sell it.
- It takes 10 men (or women) to build a car and sell it for $20,000. Each man (or woman) gets paid $2,000 for their work, but now it takes 20 days to built the car and sell it because there are less people working on it.
In the first scenario, the men (or women) would each get $100 a day (or that equivalent) - $1,000 / 10 = $100.
In the second scenario, the men (or women) would also each get $100 a day (or that equivalent) - $2,000 / 20 = $100.
It takes longer to find a block than the larger pools because we don't have as many miners. But having less miners pays better per block because we don't have to share out the block reward to as many other miners as the big pools.
